Discontinuing Boruto + other Viz Anime on Patreon - Notice
Hey all, it has been a hectic few days with the DMCA from Viz, and unfortunately I just received ANOTHER for the timecode reaction posted two days ago.
In order to protect my Patreon, I will not be uploading my reaction to Boruto 293 here, nor linking anything to previous Boruto reactions, and will have to find a different solution for HxH, Death Note, etc. I know this is upsetting news to some of you, but I cannot keep dealing with suspensions that completely halt the channel and page.
Going forward for every reaction I will only have the timecode on screen (with no slice of the show showing) in order to completely substantiate my claims of being within fair use (which I already am in the format that I use).
For those of you that subscribed to the Patreon for Boruto and Boruto alone or you would just like a refund in general, you are more than welcome to message me here on Patreon and I will go about the process of doing so for you.
I am very sorry for the inconvenience.

Just wanted to say it would’ve been awesome to see your reaction to today’s episode Jack:,). It is what it is but i hope there’s something for part 2 ✨🫶
Man sucks to hear, I'm sure it wasn't an easy decision. Appreciate the transparency
" would just like a refund in general, you are more than welcome" im fairly certain 95% of us wont ask for this but man this made me respect jack so much more
Noooooooooo i was binge watching the Boruto reactions, would you be able to link them on Reddit or something, idk how this all works 😭😭
Sorry to hear that this is because of the publishers. I subscribed specifically for the mob psycho reactions but can’t really watch with the timer format. I won’t ask for a refund, I understand it’s out of your control. An option that some do are to use the YouTube membership subscription, and then have that send people to discord where you can post links (with a password) to the videos. Food for thought if that is an option. Otherwise there are large reactors (Like RTTV) who do full reactions to most shows on Patreon. Not sure if they just haven’t been caught, but maybe they would have some advice on how they prevent it
Ever thought about making your own website
Funny that there was a guy in these comments recently, i think for the mob psycho reactions or one piece reactions, talking about how he didn't see why Jack had to do this format and that other reactors were better. Welllll buddy this is what happens
Anime publishers will do anything to claim you and it sucks for anime reaction channels. Hopefully you can find ways around the system to combat the studios abusing the DMCA
Well that sucks but you do what you need to. Tho could you just put up the time code only and no thumbnail of the show itself. So basically all we see is you and numbers? I know some won’t be able to perfectly sync that way but I’d rather have a delay then nothing at all. I wish I knew an IP lawyer for you.
Understandable, but man...that´s really sad. I LOVED your reactions on Boruto, rewatched the whole series with your reactions recently. :( Would be cool if you can look for an solution or alternative, when Boruto Part 2 comes around in the future.
ggs. as long as one piece good, im good
I've always enjoyed hearing your thoughts on the various stories on your channel; with Boruto in particular, so to see it go is indeed sad news. Yet the choice is perfectly understandable and were I in the same position I'm sure my choice would have been the same as yours. I can only cross my fingers and hope that going forward with your planned changes will result in less copyright struggles for you.
Wow that really sucks, I really enjoyed your Boruto reactions.. you were my favorite reactor for it. 😔😔😔
could be worse¯\_( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)_/¯
Dickhead
I will miss watching your Boruto reactions :(
I wish I could rant at these DMCA people. This is just messed up. Hopefully you have no more problems with them.
Sucks to hear, but do what you need to man, hoping to see the fix on the death note series soon
so we're back to copyright stone age now, but this time on Patreon? this is ridiculous the Japanese artifacts that don't understand fair use need to commit sudoku and get out of the way of our media
Is it maybe possible to show the start of the episode in a full length version like 5 seconds?! Blind Wave does it as well. Maybe you should check out a lawyer or ask other popular reaction Youtuber and how they are handling these things. Cause many people got claimed in the last few weeks
Yeah the format will be the same as the recent MHA and Mob reactions.
Will you be able to show a screenshot at the beginning so we can sync up our audio with yours? I use Hulu and your time stamp doesn’t normally line up properly so I have to adjust it based on the the video on screen.
For future videos they will all be like the two most recent Patreon posts where it shows the screen at the very beginning and then fades away!
i understand you say in wanting a us to do a refund but it’s a lot on your plate rn man, hope you can take care of what you need to in order to fix this situation- we love you jack you kno that
Then for episode 293 of Boruto can you do a review/disscussion video for it at least because I would like to hear your thoughts about it!
Consider it done! I will make a Patreon exclusive post about the arc and future in general.
Dang that really sucks to hear and it sucks that they still come after you despite more than complying with fair use. Hope that at least with this change they don't five you more trouble in the future for other stuff
I will not request a refund, but I would like to see your full reaction to the last chapter of Boruto 😞.
it’s a good thing i just started one piece brotha
Im not a huge naruto/boruto fan but man this sucks not just for fans but for you Jack cause if I'm right your a huge fan and have been for a long time, the fact your not able to share your reactions with others who love the show and the world in it is so shit, hope your not too down about it lad, chin up!
Could try a blurred version of the video, that's what a lot of reaction channels use. Timecode on its own can be really hard to sync because different streaming sites put different intros on the videos and things that makes the timecodes wrong, especially for anime.
I actually used to use that format and was still taken down, so I am not sure they care a whole lot about whether or not it's actually fair use.
As much as I don’t particularly care for Boruto and don’t watch those reactions it sucks that you’re being so ridiculously restricted on things you want to react to.
Since I am switching to solely timecode and not even a single portion of the anime will be on screen, I will more likely than not counter future claims as it would make even less sense than it already does of why the page would be DMCA'd.
Please read the whole post and do not be afraid to reach out about a refund! I want you to get the content you signed up for and unfortunately I cannot provide a portion of it any longer.
Does that mean no Hunter Hunter too
